I'll find that out tomorrow but from what I read, the jconcepts finisher gives alot of front downforce thus more steering, and ive read the same about the bulldog, but i heard it isnt as much. I'll be testing both bodys for the first time wednesday night. Next on my list is the FTW Racing Night Fox, uggo as butt, however, I just want to see how the handling differences are. From there I will be buying multiple of the same wings, cutting them differently to see what I notice.

just trim the front where it narrows and it will fit..I don't see them making a +8 stock body anytime soon.

thats not for the 8mm chassis, that was designed for the stock chassis, the night fox XL is for the people who have thrown their b4.1 on a t4.1 chassis, which is much longer.

hi there

just a question about the longer +8mm chassis for the b4.1

is it a overall better chassis or just on bigger tracks?

would the longer chassis be better on small indoor tracks too?



thank you

I'm not fond of any of the cab forward bodies as well, but just for info, the stock original body (which means most every body ever made will) fits the +8mm chassis as I have one on my B4 +8 and didn't have to modify anything, not even the tab with the hole for a body clip, to locate ontop of the rear tower.
So no need to wait for a low, streamlined body to come out for the B4 +8, just use what is out there originally. I also trimmed up a proline crowd-pleaser body and it also fits fine without modification or strange cuts onto the +8mm chassis.

Picture of my +8mm chassis with stock B4 Body.

Just for reference, I didn't like the +8mm chassis at all, this after driving mine, 2 current AE drivers and one other racer's who is the fastest at our local indoor currently, and none of their cars felt any better than my own. I prefer the standard chassis length.
